    Re: We need help with action on CNN story
    Somebody commented on the CNN opinions under the article that HR669 will be piggy backing on a bill that deals with protecting children from video games. Does anyone know if there is any truth to that? It sounds ridiculous to me, but the last thing we need is this bill making it passed the sub-committee and being attached to a "save the children" bill, or any other bill that would be blindly stamped through congress.

    HR669 was the number of a bill for protecting children from video games in the early 2000's. It's been assigned to a couple of other bills in other years as well. Google HR669 and you'll see some other bills that number has been assigned to in the past.

    THIS bill is not piggy backing on any bill regarding children.

    Should Congress ban exotic pets because of environmental concerns?
